G. Pursuant to Sections 2.020 and 7.710(5) of the Eugene Code, 1971, and Section 2.4 of the SDC Methodologies, and the recommendation of the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission, on June 27, 2019, I issued Administrative Order No. 58-19-11 directing that public Notice be given advising the public of an opportunity to submit comments on my proposal to implement inflationary increases to the Systems Development Charges for Regional Wastewater System, Local Wastewater System, Stormwater System, and Parks System, effective August 1, 2019, or as soon as legally permissible thereafter. In making the determination to implement the inflationary adjustments, I have considered the applicable policies, enactments and directives of the City Council, the amount charged by the City in the past, the full costs of providing these services supported by the fee, the amounts charged by other comparable providers, and the revenue needs of the City as determined by the adopted City budget. H. Notice of the proposed amendments was given by providing copies of Administrative Order No. 58-19-11, including Exhibit A (the current rates and proposed amendments) and Exhibit B (the Notice), to the Mayor and City Councilors; making those documents available to persons who had requested such notice; making the documents available for review at the Eugene City Engineer's Office, Public Works Department, 99 East Broadway, Suite 400, Eugene, Oregon; and, on July 9, 2019, posting the documents at two City Hall locations. In addition, persons who requested notice of the amendments were mailed informational postcards as notification of the proposed amendments and, on July 9, 2019, a copy of the Notice marked as Exhibit B to the Administrative Order was published in the Register-Guard Newspaper. I. Notice provided that written comments would be received for a period of 15 days from the date of posting and publication. No comments were received within the time or in the manner set forth in the Notice. J. I find that the inflationary adjustments set forth in Exhibit A to this Order are consistent with adopted policies of the City, are in conformity with applicable state law, are authorized by Section 7. 710( 5) of the Eugene Code, 1971, and should be implemented effective August 1, 2019. On the basis of these findings, I order that: 1. The adjusted Systems Development Charges for Regional Wastewater System, Local Wastewater System, Stormwater System, and Parks System set forth in Exhibit A attached to this Order are to be implemented effective August 1, 2019. 2. The unamended Systems Development Charges for Regional Wastewater System, Local Wastewater System, Stormwater System, and Parks System remain in full force and effect.
